Who Cooked the Last Supper?: The Women's History of the World by Rosalind Miles

3.0

This is a fun but flawed historical document. It's mostly about what white free women were up to, and just barely mentions slavery in America or elsewhere. She at least mentions that women were involved in anti-racist and abolitionist movements, but doesn't describe any of their actions or their thoughts, generally. There's also only a token mention of queer women. Miles is wry and angry, and that's my thing, but this isn't very comprehensive and should be read in the context of the pre-intersectional feminist movement. I'm glad I read it now rather than in or just out of college, where I would've been more focused on white feminism than on total liberation.
